Short answer: how to book a notary in Chiang Mai
NYC has no Chiang Mai branch. Services are coordinated through agents and arranged individually. Some foreign nationals' documents must be handled by their own consulate rather than a Thai lawyer, so ask the receiving authority which certification it accepts.

Choosing Between a Thai Lawyer and a Consulate
Check the required certifying authority. If the recipient needs a document issued or certified by an embassy or consulate, a Thai lawyer's certification may not be a substitute. Confirm the specific requirements before booking.
Power of attorney for overseas property
Ask the receiving bank or lawyer whether a Thai notary is accepted or consular certification is required.
Single-status declaration for marriage registration
For many nationalities, this must come from their own embassy or consulate, not a Thai lawyer.
Certified passport copy
Used for various applications; bring the original passport for inspection.
Long-term lease documents or agreements for relatives
The lawyer certifies signing, not the agreement's legal validity.

Questions about Chiang Mai

- Check with the immigration office handling the application first. Some cases require a letter from the applicant's embassy or consulate.
